I don't like to tell anybody this because I'm slightly ashamed but I
use Microsoft (thats right I said it!) Access Database's because they
are a stand alone database that I can take round on my usb pen, go to
a PC, do a little vulnerability test on it, open the access database
and add the results and then on to the next workstation and it has
built in basic reporting!

Does anybody have any thoughts about a database for an audit to contain
current vulnerability issues and subsequent updates?

I imagine that it should have at least two tables - one table for
computers and another table for vulnerabilities.  Obviously, each
computer can have multiple vulnerabilities and it would be nice to be
able to generate a report for each vulnerability.  I also think it would
be good to have the ability to note when vulnerabilities are resolved as
an additional note.
